That is just perfect.<br /><br />And, Bardiac, we agree that Clinton looks thoughtful rather than horrified in the picture and were surprised that she felt self-conscious enough about it to issue that ridiculous comment about spring allergies. We had also noted the preponderance of white guys in the photo. Moose went back and looked at pics of the Kennedy and Johnson administrations for purposes of comparison. There, the meetings are solid walls of white men in dark suits, so the Obama admin pic looks more diverse but not as diverse as one might expect. Moose was at a meeting on campus yesterday and thought about all of those pictures in part because the group gathered round the big honking conference table was so much more diverse than anything she'd seen. The meeting was chaired by a high-ranking female administrator, visited by a higher-ranking female administrator, and the group of unit heads at the table was very mixed in terms of gender, race, and ethnicity. Obviously not all meetings on campus are like that, but it was nice to see. Moose kept imagining everyone in superhero costumes. Actually, she kept imaging everyone in Wonder Woman costumes, but, you know, she has a limited imagination.Roxie Smith Lindemannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06455529922082930949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-88021714987248466252011-05-10T22:24:25.035-04:002011-05-10T22:24:25.035-04:00I fucken love Princess beatrice's wackadoodle ...I fucken love Princess beatrice's wackadoodle hat!!!11111111!11!Comrade PhysioProfhttp://physioprof.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-75015854878428235912011-05-10T12:42:34.048-04:002011-05-10T12:42:34.048-04:00I thought Clinton looked thoughtful holding her ha...I thought Clinton looked thoughtful holding her hand that way, not horrified. It doesn't look like her jaw's stretched (as it would if open in horror), but thoughtful.<br /><br />I love the superhero picture. :)<br /><br />I think it says a lot about the US that there's one (and only one) obvious person of color in the picture (except for the green guy in the superhero version), and that though there are only two women, one is craning from the very margins, and what it says is that white men still run pretty much everything. We need to have access to the best folks working in government, not just the best white males with occasional people of color or women.Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-43744501766175651482011-05-10T09:12:58.112-04:002011-05-10T09:12:58.112-04:00Clinton as Wonder Woman: I want a full-sized poste...Clinton as Wonder Woman: I want a full-sized poster version for my office.Candy Mannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23938076.post-21689377925119139172011-05-10T08:57:55.929-04:002011-05-10T08:57:55.929-04:00I know, I know -- We saw it and somehow managed no...I know, I know -- We saw it and somehow managed not to fit it into this post.
